president obama is blaming the republicans for this stalled proposal right now. listen to the president. >> if congress does nothing eerie familiar -- every family will see income taxes go up at the beginning of next year. a typical middle class family of four will see income taxes rise by $2,200. it's unacceptable for some republicans in congress to hold middle class tax cuts in hostage because they refuse to let tax rates go up on the wealthiest americans. >> congressman ted o says he finds the president's suggestion to congress basically laughable, because the president, you will remember during the campaign the 800 billion number was thrown around for new taxes how much revenue could be brought in if that upper echelon of people were taxed higher. now it has suddenly become 1.6 trillion in new revenue in terms of taxes that the president is looking for. congressman ted pough has thoughts on this. >> his proposal is so ridiculous the idea that if he would raise taxes if we followed his plan wouldn't solve the problem anyway because the spending is so much. he
